Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] Air Tanks



Hi Dean. 12 horse main thruster! That sounds very cool. I'm sure you'll get the planes to work with that much thrust. I hope that new sonar thing David B. is making works. That could be a real help in avoiding big, dark boulders. I assume you'll have a fish finder for reading the bottom profile. I know even in places with great visibility, Objects can appear very quickly when traveling at high speed. I'm guessing that most dives are done at low speed, but I put bumpers and a very strong nose piece on mine, knowing that it's just a matter of time before I crash into something. The only really vulnerable part on mine is the two 12 inch "eyebrow" windows. I'll need to add some kind of guard for those. The main lower window should have enough protection from the front ballast tank and nose structure. I also will have a 1 inch piece of plexi in front of that 20 inch window. Mostly for hydrodynamic purposes during surface transit/towing but it will also deflect objects that might be headed for the window. Good luck, Frank D.
